After Jason Bourne is ambushed and nearly killed while in Indonesia, he fakes his death to take on a new identity and mission-to find out who is trying to assassinate him. In the process, Bourne begins to question who he really is and what he would become if he no longer carried the Bourne identity. Across the globe, an American passenger airliner is shot down over Egypt -- apparently by an Iranian missile -- leaving the world wondering if it was an accident or an act of aggression.
